Gifts to pamper mom at home on Mother's Day

Flowers and chocolates are great, but if you want to get mom something she can really use this year, here are some Mother's Day gift ideas for the home.

Mother's Day is a holiday that carves out a little time for everyone to celebrate the moms in their lives.

Whether you are honouring your own mother, your grandmother or a close friend or co-worker who has a busy job as a mom, it's a great excuse to get them a gift that shows how much you appreciate them.

Moms deserve to be pampered in general, but this is especially true on Mother's Day. Get your mom a wooden bed tray, so she can lie back and enjoy her morning breakfast from the comfort of her own bed.

• You can even make her breakfast the morning of Mother's Day and surprise her by serving her the first meal of the day on her new tray.

If your mom loves to garden, a new gardening set will brighten her day.

• Even if she doesn't garden, it could encourage her to take up a new hobby. Buy a few flower pots, a bag of soil and some seed packets of her favourite flowers or vegetables.
• You can also include a few handy tools so she can get started right away.
• It could also be fun to set up weekly gardening dates with her so you can spend some quality time together.

If your mom likes to enjoy a glass of wine now and then, get her a set of new wine glasses to have in the home.

• You can find fun, patterned glasses that are great for entertaining, or go for a traditional and sophisticated set.
• You can also pair the glasses with a nice bottle of her favourite wine.

New bath towels and a fresh set of sheets are lovely gifts to receive and probably things that mom doesn't always think to buy for herself.

• Get her a new set of each and, if you can, splurge on nicer, more luxurious fabrics so she can relax after a shower and get a refreshing night of sleep.

Mother's Day is about showing the mom in your life that you appreciate her. These are just a few gift ideas for your mom on Mother's Day to help make her home more cozy and inviting.
